Go back to the Blurriness attribute and change it to 0. Now, let’s move the playhead back to the beginning at 00 00 00 00.ġ4. This will make sure that the edges of your image are as blurry as the rest.ġ3. Check the box next to Repeat Edge Pixels. To the left of the Blurriness attribute, you should see a stopwatch. In the Gaussian Blur effect control panel on the left, change the Blurriness attribute to 230.ġ1. You also should see effect options appear in the leftmost panel.ġ0. This should instantly apply the effect to the current layer selected, the photo layer. Navigate to Blur and Sharpen > Gaussian Blur. Go up to the Effect options in the topmost toolbar.Ĩ. The text layers may be a bit hard to see because they are both set on an Overlay layer mode, but we’ll soon fix up that visibility issue with an effect.ĥ.
In the layers panel, you should see a base layer containing a photo, then two text layers above it. Navigate to After Effects Animating Strokes Files and open Stroke Animation.aepģ. We’ll be using the Gaussian Blur effect to blur out a background photo, fading in some text, and, most importantly, animating some text strokes.Ģ. In this tutorial, we’ll be putting together an animation that utilizes the Trim Paths tool to produce a cool “appearing stroke” animation. You should end up with an After Effects Animating Strokes folder. After the download has finished, be sure to unzip the file if it hasn’t been done for you.So what is that stroke anyway?Ī stroke is pretty simple: It’s just the outline around your letters and can be modified to have a different appearance or even motion than the fill.
Or you may have seen that in your color options, there are two boxes, one for fill and one for stroke. You might notice that around your letters, there’s an additional thin line, perhaps in a different color.
So say you type out some text in After Effects.
